The closest tamil word that I can come up with is Ezhu (like in Nenje Ezhu [but here it means rise - as in spiritual rising]).
"Filght of a bird" in tamil, I have no idea.
Aagaayam Thaduthal Paayum Paravai Aavom
Basically the song emphasises on over-coming obstacles. Just like in Panchatantra tales, the animals are assosiated to produce a better understanding. As per your above comment - the poem can be coined as "Aagaayam Thaduthal, Naam Paravai Pol Ezhuvom". But when these poems take a poetical structure with a musical tune assosiated to it, the whole lyrics has to be fine tuned to satisfy both the melody & the rythm as well as the core message it tries to convey (without repetition of words - in this case Naam which is used in the thematic stanza). Thus it is coined as you hear it, giving it some more beauty.
I will wait for Varaimuthu to sprinkle some words on these lyrics. He is the one who crisply details his poems. Even in Sivaji - Va ji Va ji song - "Pala kavignargal karpanai thavidupodi" was explained thouroughly by Vairamuthu and how Shankar gave a touch on the visuals by making a smoke of dust rising from Rajini when he slaps his laps, symbolising the Thavidupodi. The duet between the lyrics and the visuals were excellent. These are high rates of imagination.
